Abstract :
The economic production of drive components is a major condition for the market success of electric vehicles. To deal with the high number of variants in the automotive industry, market uncertainties and to ensure an economic production, it is necessary to develop flexible production lines which meet the requirements of automotive series production. Based on the development of a production-oriented component design, manufacturing and different measurement methods have to be examined and enabled to readiness. Moreover, simulation-based classification models will be used for the final design of the production lines.
